It's raining hard today in New York but that did not damper anyone's spirits for this bridal shower. Megan, a repeat customer, contacted me and ordered 5 dozen cupcakes for her sister's bridal shower held at Black and Blue Restaurant in Huntington. The bride chose dusty rose as her wedding color and Megan chose these floral design. I love the simplicity and how lovely they came out. Chocolate, vanilla and vanilla chocolate chip flavored cupcakes for a wide variety.
My cousin Denise ordered four dozen cupcakes for her great friend Diana who is expecting her first child and having a baby shower. Denise ordered all vanilla cupcake favors with a variety of fondant toppers with baby girl theme. The boxes were all dressed up in sheer white ribbon and pretty little custom tags!
I was not able to photograph the finished work at my house and my cousin was kind enough to snap a few for the blog. Here you go! Diana has been so wonderful with so many children over the years and now she'll be raising her very own princess!

My friend Johanna contacted me all the way from Delaware to bake cupcakes for her friend celebrating her 40th Birthday. She gave me delivery instructions and Kerri had no idea what she would be getting, she only knew that I would be coming delivering "something." Kerri & I do not know each other so it was fun knowing she couldn't even try to crack the mystery with me. Johanna told me that Kerri's favorite flowers are Gerber daisies. She sent me colors and chose vanilla chocolate chip as the flavor. I was delighted to drive up to her door and give her a birthday surprise that Johanna coordinated from far away! It was a welcome to make these on a cloudy wintry day too!
Debra is a proud Grandmother and wanted to make Jack's first birthday very special. She asked that I make sock monkey cupcakes to accompany a huge cake ordered from a local bakery. I am always excited to try a new theme and was up for it! Got into a groove once I was able to assemble this cute little sock monkey and very pleased with the outcome. Happy FIRST Birthday Jack!
Frozen cupcakes for kids, Hockey (NY Islanders) cupcakes for Matthew and Boxed Favors for a surprise 40th Birthday for Mike! It's been a crazy couple of months and I haven't even posted my work on the blog. I know it's not the same. No story behind the bake. I apologize and will try to get back on track.
These beautiful cupcakes were ordered by Megan for her Mom's special milestone birthday as a added surprise to her celebration! Megan was so easy to bake for because she gave me a lot of free reign. She sent me a few ideas and we brainstormed and I played copy cat to one of the ideas she sent, even used the same colors! Am unable to credit the design since not sure where she found the photo online.
***Note: Maureen celebrated her birthday nearly two long months ago and I've only posted it now. I have never been this far behind in posting on the blog and I apologize
My friend Janet turned 40 and her celebration was fierce! Janet is the kind of girl who puts a lot of thought into every detail. She contacted me well in advance for this order but I was only able to make the fondant toppers since my kitchen was under renovation and I was unable to bake for her. Most people order my cupcakes BECAUSE of the toppers and she was very precise with each design and her colors. These cupcake toppers were made for her to treat her friends who were taking her away to celebrate her milestone birthday for overnight pampering at a spa! Here are the happy bunch with their matching pjs and sleeping masks!
